Done for the day. Trailing arm cross member fits horrible so it's just sitting there.....

It's been a long day of cutting, drilling an grinding so that's it until next week or whenever I hear any ideas from porterbuilt on the cross member.

Love it man ... This is going to be badass

So far it's more of a pain in the @ss....

Worked on it again tonight haven't had any info from porter built on a fix so I ground the welds off an I'll reweld it back. I have everything in place but something is off. If I center the axle the trailing arm cross member is crooked in the frame. Square it up an the axle is crooked

Decided to fix the cross member myself an pretty much finished mocking everything up.

Cross member is bolted in now. Just need to weld the tabs back on the passenger side. After that I need to flip the frame to drill a few holes then it's time to clean an paint.

Felt motivated today after work an put in the front shock relocators.

It isn't much but oh well. Also put all my tools back up an cleaned up a little. Cross member should be getting welded up Friday.
